Fraud! Scam! Don't deposit this check! ripoff

THIS IS A SCAM! I received a letter in the mail stating that I had won over $100, 000 in a British Lotto. Unsure of how, I called the phone number given and my "agent" told me what steps to take to claim my prize.

First I was to deposit the check without contacting local media or a bank. RED FLAG! Then I was to wait for the check to clear, withdraw the money, and send it to someone else.

The letter stated:

"We are pleased to inform you that after the just concluded ROYAL BRITTISH LOTTO held in Londan, England, that you emerged as one of the winners. Your name was attached to ticket number ###-#### with serial number ###-##### drew the lucky numbers blah-blah-blah. You have won the lump sum of $115, 500.00 from a total cash prize of $2, 450, 500.00.

Assistance check of $2, 998.40 is enclosed to finance the international clearance fees of $2, 844.50. You will receive a total of $115, 500.00 minus $7, 854.00 (Sponsor's Commission). You will receive a total of $107, 646.00."

Total rip-off! I took the check and letter to my credit union who immediately told me that it was a scam and to tear up the check. I have to admit, I still didn't want to let go of the hope that it was real, until I got online and found this website, which completely confirmed it for me. I plan to contact authorities until this matter is taken care of. I cannot even begin to imagine the amount of people who will be ripped off by this scam right before the holidays.
